                    Sorry, but it sounds like the previous owner didn't maintain it properly. Just be happy the cooling system hasn't taken a shit on you yet.


                    This is coming from somebody who daily drives an e36.

                            If you buy the last year production model with great service records, you should be okay. Lots of production bugs and in many respects, they over thought the car. Keep an eye on the cooling system. E36s can't handle heat without an engine rebuild.

                                                I think you just need to go around the car and tighten some things up.... then maybe go around again and tighten some more things

                                                    Im thinking of parting it out. If I keep the engine and trans, I may be able to break even in the long run.

                                                        I bought a 1998 328is a couple of weeks ago and I have none of these problems. AC blows nice and cold, all of the seats are perfect, the interior doesnt make funny noises. The only issue with the interior is the glovebox sags a bit, which is easily fixed if i ever end up caring enough. Other than that I have a newer, nicer car than the E30 I had that is more powerful and comfortable.

                                                        If you drive your e30 on stairs, you're gonna have a bad time.

                                                            Maybe its just the earlier e36s.
